We were in Paris over Easter weekend in 2018, and this was what the streets looked like on Easter Monday.
A sight that has become uncomfortably familiar, I’m sure, thatnks to Covid-19.
France
Queen’s Staircase
I really felt like a queen, walking down this staircase. I could imagine wearing one of those huge dresses and walking gracefully…until I realized how sloped the steps were! Yikes! We ended up carefully holding the railing as we descended
Banquet Hall
You could go to visit the King and you’d get to watch him dine. Not exactly an experience that I’d want, but it’s better than watching him use the chamber pot in his quarters…
Bust
Big fan of busts. They’re culture and they don’t move! Who might this one be of? Someone important, to be sure.
Fireplace
The detailing on the fireplace! And look at the embroidery work on the footstools! Quarantine project? lol
Intricate
Look at the detail on this, down to the flowers!
And you can spot Jen and Eric in the wild! 😉
Goddess Diana/Artemis
A statue of the goddess Diana (Roman) or Artemis (Greek). She’s my second favourite of the gods (Persephone is the best, imho).
Full house!
No, not the TV show! THe Hall of Mirrors was packed during Easter weekend of 2018. Can you spot the Travelling TARDIS’s creator?
